Alicia L: Buy a Burrata Mozzarella and Parma ham, take it home and enjoy with a good baguette!!
Serious Eats: One of the city's top cheese shops with incredible selection and always-friendly staff. Grilled cheese sandwiches and sweet snacks are winners, too.
Gi Edgington: Cheese heaven! Great gourmet items!
Xavier Hairiskhurly: Meatball parm hero with pepperoni is a great lunch time twist for ten bucks
Zayed Khan: May be the best chicken cutlet w/ mozzarella & pesto sandwich I've ever had. Also large enough for two meals, so at $10 it is a bargain.
Tom Morton: It's all about the heroes: try mozzarella, broccoli rabe, grilled red peppers and hot peppers as a surprising vegetarian sleeper hit

Dmitry: The food is amazing. House made mozzarella and focaccia are fantastic. Although everything else we had was very tasty. Olive cake with berries did not disappoint. Very reasonable prices.

Halstead Property: Try to score a seat at the kitchen table for front row seats to the open air kitchen! Must try the roasted mushroom appetizer served with pancetta, ricotta salata + topped w a delicious “runny” egg
Patty: One of the best beef carpaccio I've ever had! Ask for the ricotta plate with jam- off the menu and comes with amazing sweet crackers.
Verna: Always start with the homemade ricotta, get the tagliatelle bolognese, bucatini or hanger steak but leave room for dessert...it's all amazing!
